The Nikon F, Canon EF and Leica R Baveyes 0.7x adapters are now in Stock and shipping for the first time on [shoplink 24353 ebay]eBay (Click here to check price and details)[/shoplink]. These Baveyes work just like the Speed Booster but do cost much less. Of course we will have to see if they are almost as good as the Metabones. Let me know if you find some test and samples. Thanks!

Hi Admin,
Any news on those RX rumours?
Aren’t the MTF charts shown too poor to be worth putting a quality lens on top of them?
even the 20lp/mm look bad and the 40lp/mm even disastrous.
and I guess this is in addition to the original MTF curves of the the lens that will be used, e.g. If the original lens MTF for say 40lp/mm shows 85% at certain radius and the adapter MTF shows 30% the total would be 0.85*0.30 = 25% which is quite low
How does it perform when compare with Metabones?
Any autofocus on this thing?
fully manual
All these announcements and reviews are cool and alll, but with the 2 new FE lenses coming next month, do we have a clue what they are yet? Everyone expecting a 16-35/4 and 85/1.8. Can we get some comfirmation? At least sooner than 3 hours before announcement?
I’ve posted this before but according to people that have been at CP+ (talking to Sony reps) the next lenses are 16-35/4, 35/1.4 90 (Macro). Yes, the 35/1.4 seems like an odd choice.
That’s a very odd choice since the roadmap shows 2 lenses in March and not 3. The 90mm is hugely disappointing. I’m sure a lot of people who are macro fans will be happy, but I’d like a good portrait lens.
Lokking at the mtf charts postet here this adapter is absolutely terrible.
Maybe it’s better to buy a full frame than this adapter..
a6000 and this give me a much smaller package than any FF mirrorless, and I prefer rangefinder to “hump” cameras. I have a speed booster and love it for what it does.
Based on these mtf charts this is a very poor quality adapter
Based on these mtf charts this adapter is terrible
Are there measured MTFs of the others to compare with?
Will hold off judgement until I see some actual example, not a fan of using charts to decide.
Also no way to control the iris on the Canon EF Version, so stuck wide open.
This costs more than double what the Lens Turbo costs. No thanks.

Nothing about an a3000 replacement? An upgraded version?
These do not seem to provide an aperture control ring for the adapted lenses. I might be blind to it or something (might need more than 4 eyes now T.T) but it’ll be a problem when adapting newer lenses which do not come with an aperture control ring on the lens body itself.
I’m still new to photography though so if someone can correct me it’ll be very educational.
You’re partially correct. Especially the EOS one is totally useless for Canon users. But using an EOS addapter, you can add a Nikon-EOS adapter with aperture control. The Nikon version of the adapter should be used with older Nikkors as they have aperture rings.
For Canon users, the only option is the 600USD electronic Metabones.
the MTF showing is very poor! …………. Any comparsion
On eBay there are reducing adapters half the price of this from at least one, but if I recall right, from two manufacturers, and I am sure their MTFs just can’t be any worse…
